Marketing: The Seven Musts of Marketing
Chet Holmes book, The Ultimate Sales Machine was voted one of the best books of the year when it was published in 2007. I have read and re-read it numerous times. Businesses must be sales machines to remain in business and Chet offers 12 Key Strategies that will turbocharge your business. This strategy is his seven musts of marketing:
  1. Advertising
  2. Direct Mail
  3. Business literature: brochures and promotional pieces
  4. Public Relations
  5. Personal contact: sales people and customer service
  6. Market education: trade shows, speaking engagements, and education based marketing
  7. Internet: websites, email efforts, social media and affiliate marketing
Small businesses may not be able to do them all so you have to pick and choose the ones that will give you the greatest impact for the least money. However, all seven, consistently applied helps you remain competitive, relevant and open for business!

The medical news that surgery is necessary often turns your entire life upside down, and can cause feelings of fear, anxiety, uncertainty and more. 
Do you ever walk around your streets or hang out with friends and family and wonder how some people are simply so likeable? You might love them or hate them yourself, but do you ever wish that you had that level of confidence?

Well, contrary to popular belief, nobody is born with charisma, it’s something that is learned. By boosting your charisma, you will automatically become more magnetic to other people. You’ll come across as being more trustworthy, more loyal, more persuasive...
